Sigh, it hurts...

...(my wallet)

... to be an Arashi fan at times. Especially in this time, our recession-ridden, economic down time. Like many people, I received the golden email from CDJapan yesterday with the subject "Upcoming Artist Newsmail". As soon as clicked it and saw "Arashi Around Asia 2008" DVD I texted my friend to let her know and her response was "BUY ( Read more... )

Hello there ^^
Hope you're doing well, weren't able to talk for a long time ne ^^.

but wow...that's the reason I gave up to buy arashi's DVD. It's too expensive to buy JE DVD's. The price of those DVD's is like 3 times higher than usual DVD's. Johnny's knows exactly how to make money. I wonder what arashi's 10 year jubily special will be ^^.

take care

Hi Kazanko! It has been a while hasn't it! I hope you're doing well! ^_^

It IS so expensive to buy these DVDs... I bought the NEWS DVD as well and it was still pricey, came to about $60 CDN, but at that time the exchange was still good. Johnny's KNOWS that whatever Arashi's 10th anniversary will be, fans are still going to buy it (me included). But it just means I'm going to have to cut something else and call this my occasional "spoiling of myself" lol.

I know what you mean, I'm pretty much looking at the exchange rate everyday. It's so weird that Yen is going stronger although others are going down. I think it's my sin. When I was obsessed with British boyband, the pound was rising up...and now yen *sigh*

As much as I complained about it, I'm still buying everything endlessly; magazines, cds, dvds *sigh* The price of being a fangirl!

Lol, I agree. No matter how much we complain, we'll still buy. Though I'm being *kinda* good and not buying singles, I'm limiting myself to the CDs and DVDs and err, the occasional photobook and magazine... that sounds like I'm NOT being good hahaha. Argh, and with it being the 10th anniversary I'm sure there's going to be lots of stuff out this year! God help my wallet :P
